Great video. A word of advice. When blowing, tacking or spraying, ALWAYS work from the air intake toward the exhaust. It keeps trash and overspray flowing in the right direction. Thanks for the black widow videos. I think I'm going to get one.
Watching you gives me the confidence to pick up a gun. I've learned a lot with rattle cans. From Dollar store flat primer gray on farm trucks to Rust-Oleum pro grade rattle cans on a Civic, to 2k clear on big wide hoods, to body filler and paint prep on entire panels. I'm ready to take the plunge and hope I can get at least half the results you get! Beers!
Jon Kosmoski (aka god) says 400 (Dry) prior to basecoat. Is it universally agreed that wet sanding is at least one grit coarser than dry sanding. Therefore 600 wet is the coarsest you can go with wet sanding. I agree with Jon that the base will start to fill the 400 dry scratch and that the clear will completely eliminate them. For a flowcoat 500-600 dry is better as you've got less additional film build coming. The 3M 260L finishing film with an interface pad is the way to go. One fifth the time of wet sanding and a better scratch pattern to boot.
Finaly!!!!!!!!!!!!! What a guy!!!!!!!!!!!! No one else shows a cleaning like that. Thats the real way to clan a gun properly!!!!!!! NICE!! Everybody should clan a gun like that. Then It will last forever.
thanks for the post Kraftie. Apparently clear coat and alcohol don't mix. They cause dry spots! I am painting my 73 std beetle in Porsche livery blue and orange. I have applied Valspar interclear over my base coats. I'm not finished the base coating yet. Because the shop is cold, small and poorly lighted and I only have 2 days per work on the car I am painting it in sections. After I get all the 2 tone base/interclear done I have to sand it down and do the GULF painted logos all over it. Great tip on the 600 grit, I'll drink to that...but not while I'm sprayin clear.
You can buy a Devilbiss FLG-5 or an Iwata Bellaria W-400 for equal or less money and get the same or better results, more reliability and the ability to replace parts when they fail...and they will eventually. I'm not trashing Harbor Freight stuff as I have a bunch of their purple guns, the "professional" gun, and the 35 dollar detail gun, but they're all throw away guns because you can't get parts. When I'm spending 500 bucks per gallon of paint there's no way I'm going to use a disposable gun.
So basically what I've gathered is this guys was lazy didnt clean his gun then got drunk and sprayed a customers car and attempted to send it out and only after the customer wasnt happy we got this lovely video...
Iv flow coated over 500 grit no problems ..... High solids clear will be fine , cheap low solids clear will give you a problem. I use speedokote European clear and flow coat with 500 all day long no issues
I usually just keep the presure the same , ls clear I find just atomizes easyer which is why people like it. Hs clear is a lot harder to work with and you really gota have a expensive gun to lay out anything over 40% solids . I spray 44% solids speedokote euro clear unreduced out of my sagola 4600 extreme dvr clear gun
I'm pretty sure that's exactly what he did. Notice his masking has paint on it already. The car is for a friend and he showed him with no intention of leaving it that way.
Good video, appreciate you showing your errors. I wondered when you were going to remove the air valve for cleaning, then saw it pop out when you blew air into the inlet. You didn’t seem to notice at first. I just bought that gun and may have learned the hard way there is a right and wrong way to install the air valve. I tightened the fluid nozzle (with the valve not properly seated) and now worry about how well it will work (my bad). It is not a Murphy proofed design and there are no markings on the air valve to designate up from down. Thanks for the tip about wearing gloves while sanding. Please use your influence to get HF to sell a repair kit for the Black Widow.
Subbed, you explain things really well. Do you have to clean it that carefully when going from base to clear? As a beginner, I struggle a lot setting up the gun. On your 6 month review of the Widow you explained a little bit about the psi for the base and clear but didn't explain where your fluid settings were at. Please make more vids of this gun and set up! Well done.
Great job we all have trash in a panel for many reasons offen wonderd about doing this instead off all that sanding and buffing to take care of a bad panel.
You seem to be understanding some of the problems you have with the finish, dry etc, but I’m uncomfortable with your fixing. 600 wet even on silver may be quick to knock down but you will see the scratches under the next clearcoat and no amount of buffing will give you clarity down to the colour as the scratches are trapped between coats. Minimum 800 grit on light colours and 1500 on dark colours is best to go for if you want to see thru the clear to the colour best.
Wet sanded and buffed after the clear? Wet sanded with what? Brings up a question I have… I will spray sealer and base and clear on E coated hood and fenders, then what? After the clear dries a few hours is it good to go or does it need additional steps and how long to wait?
The last step is clear coat. If you plan to paint your car the way you explained is exact. My video shows an additional step you can take so the clear coat lays as flat as possible, it is not necessary and it's only purpose is to quickly fix a bad situation.
I had a problem with a rough finish painting it first car and I wanted to sand it and spray more clear but the guy at the paint store told be the base had to be tacky still in order for the clear to stick properly..:
Yeah I basically ran out of clear after 1 and a half coats and the finish was pretty rough. I wanted to add more but like I said the guy said not to at the pint store. So I decided to just wet sand the shit out of it and buff it best I could. But some of the primer is showing through now so I’m gonna paint it again. This time with better and more clear, and a black widow 😎
@@hellfire08 i wish i could have given you the advice sooner. And yea sanding on clear has to be done with fine sand paper, and super fine if you want to buff it. Good luck and follow me on Instagram so you can DM me questions
Same happened to me in my first paint job. But I just re sanded it with 600 and sprayed a coat of base and 2 coats of clear. Now it's nice and smooth. And that was with 9.99 purple gun. Going to go buy the black widow today cant wait to see results. I want to minimize wet sanding.
Was ypur fluid all the way out? I jist sprayed clear with this gun and it came out horrible, had horrible atomization so had to run at 35 psi to make it better, had to run the fluid full out, sprayed big droplets, horrible orange peel, several runs.. Extremely dissappointing, i would have killed for it to come out like this
This thing likes lots of air pressure, 35lbs sounds about right. You may have to thin you paint a bit if it is coming out big, but don't thin more then 10%. If you follow the steps I took in this video and sand the clear and reapply you should be able to save your project. Let me know how it goes.
Next time show real time for a few minutes in the front and end of job.Show if it is 1.3 or 1.4 etc. also temp. type of clear.it took a lot of guts to use that gun again at this time. well done.
Gotta play with it with lots of attention to how the gun react with every little adjustment. Play around with some news paper and water in the gun... you'll be able to see exactly how the gun sprays without using products
What psi was the gun spraying at while the trigger was pressed??? Hopefully u know and can tell me, I about to flow coat with same gun and could really help me out!!
In this instance when the car is still taped up I'll do a wet coat evertime. I dont really care for buffing and doing a whole car would have taken more time i think. This was a bit excessive to do this for just a lil orange peel but I wanted to make a click baity title too.
Acetone drys very fast and the thing with most cleaning solvents are you dont want the to evaporate before you have a chance to wipe them clean. I would use acetone to clean if that's all I have but you should clean fast and definitely glove up strong, acetone dont play!!
Kar Kraftsman The paint shop I used to work at had us run acetone thru the gun to clear it after using it. Sometimes even Barsol. Just trying to find best solution for gun maintenance at home, you know?
Haha! It's a worthy paintgun but if you dont use it a lot I think the spectrum would do just fine. I have 3 videos with it, just wanted to do a demo with the bucket tho
Friend Roy Ridge, actually what is required to base coat or clear coat or enamel is 320 grit wet sanding thats fine enough, 400 600 800 now. You come with 1000 grit, whats next 1500? Is all about surface reflexion, is u apply metallics on 320 and the result is not good is because is not well sanded..
Good sanding work is all about working up through the grits. Each grit cuts at a certain rate, and if you start off too fine, you'll just be wearing paper out and not removing enough material.
You’re a high skill guy, out of curiosity are you usually running the Harbor Freight or is it more of a demonstration of what you can do with that gun because it’s a popular gun? Because I know a Devilbiss sprayer when I see one 😉
I don't make a crazy amount of money so I always went to Harbor Freight for tool i needed. I just saw this as an opportunity to make a video and use a coupon lol. And yes, the thing sprays just like a prolite, that i usually use.
Kar Kraftsman hey it’s a good gun if it sprays like a pro lite. Try the tekna clear coat gun if you get a chance. Really nice material transfer, great gun.
This guy i work with always talk shit about HF well his gun broke (dropped it) and used my black widow, next day he bought one plus a bunch of other things.

But 620 gti millenium is a hvlp beast for clear base and single stage ..
The GTI never sprayed real good for me i guess. I did 2 metallic base jobs with it and it always seemed to give me problems. Could be just me but I use the GTI for dark colors now and my starting line for metallics. The Startingline is the most versatile gun I have IMO

Sometimes the paint will shrink and not come out as good with thinner added. But yes, that is a great way to lay glass, just watch your flash times.
With reduced you mean reducer right? You mean for a 4:1 you'll have a 4:2 (2:1)?

Either you have extremely thick skin or you aren't sanding enough. 220 sands me to the point I bleed
let it drip! thanks for review, nice gun. that was just after one coat?
I laid a fast sticky coat down then yes, one thick coat.
Am I seeing wrong or are the door handles still on the car?
Man all it needed was a cut and buff but sometimes I quess it's easier to sand and respray.

What are your thoughts on using Acetone to clean the gun vs thinner?

Why u said is not good, millenkum gti 620g is probably better than gti pro lite, of course with the cap n2000 , the fan is identical, but the diference is that 620 gti uses almost 18 cfm at 40, u need like 120 gallon compressor. But 620 gti millenium is a hvlp beast for clear base and single stage ..
The GTI never sprayed real good for me i guess. I did 2 metallic base jobs with it and it always seemed to give me problems. Could be just me but I use the GTI for dark colors now and my starting line for metallics. The Startingline is the most versatile gun I have IMO
@@KarKraftsman gti millenium 620g?
@@JHari-qj4lv I dont think its anyth8ng special like "millennium" but I know it says GTI on it. Ill make a video this week of the guns I have and use them for.
